Chapter 418: Dietary Shock
Even in the Great Zhou Dynasty, this meal was considered luxurious.
Everyone really chewed the bones into pieces and sucked out all the oil and water inside, and they almost swallowed the bone residue.
For Diak and his friends, this might be the most delicious meal they have ever had since they were born, and it was also the happiest and most satisfying meal they have ever had.
During this time, Joseph was so excited by the incomparable deliciousness that he exclaimed frequently.
Logically speaking, since Joseph was making such a fuss, Diak would most likely step in to deal with him.
But the reality was that he did not do so, because even he himself was about to scream out in shock, and he had no energy left to deal with Joseph.
The fact that the food was completely eaten up in the end, without even any juice left, proved everything.
After a hearty meal, Diak and his companions returned to their tent to rest, feeling satisfied and having a particularly sound sleep.
It was not until the next morning that I was awakened by the noise coming from outside.
At that moment, they were completely awakened and jumped directly from the dry and comfortable bed, while instinctively looking around.
After looking at the obviously unfamiliar environment around them, Diak and the others looked dazed.
At this moment, Joseph, who was lying on the bed beside him, rubbed his eyes without any tension and looked at them yawning.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Joseph who was obviously still asleep, Diak and the others slowly reacted.
"Yes, we are now in the garrison camp of Da Zhou."
During this time, listening to the noise outside, their hearts suddenly rose to their throats.
"What's going on? Why is there such a big noise outside?"
While muttering to himself, Diak slapped Joseph on the back of the head.
"Hold your weapons and stay alert!"
Joseph, who was still sleepy early in the morning, was dissatisfied with this, but he still obeyed Diak's wishes and climbed out of bed with his weapon.
Then Diak took the lead and carefully poked half of his head out of the tent, wanting to take a look at the situation outside.
As a result, he was seen by Drogo who was walking over.
"Um what are you doing?"
“…”
That complex look combined with a subtle expression made Diak realize that he seemed to have done something stupid, even without saying anything, and a hint of embarrassment rose in his heart.
He had to admit that he had thought of some bad things, but judging from Drogo's expression, he must have been overthinking.
"No, nothing. I just heard a lot of noise, so I went to check out the situation."
"oh."
Drogo suddenly realized something and pointed into the distance.
"It should be outside the camp, the soldiers are doing morning exercises."
“…”
It was another unfamiliar word. At this moment, Drogo was undoubtedly the one who could best understand the other party's confusion, so he explained it at the right time.
After listening to it, Diak, who had a certain understanding of this so-called "morning exercise", became even more confused.
In Diak's opinion, this is a great time to catch prey. Why use this time for training? What about food? With such doubts, Diak couldn't help but ask this question.
To this, Drogo simply replied...
"We have a department in Da Zhou that is specifically responsible for solving food problems. We are professional soldiers. Our main job, in addition to training, is to fight when necessary to ensure the safety of our territory and citizens."
For Diak and others, this was undoubtedly something they could not even imagine.
"You have at least a hundred people here, right?"
After the subsequent reinforcements arrived, Drogo, who had just returned, was not quite sure how many people there were in the garrison camp.
But there are definitely more than a hundred people, so Drogo nodded directly in response to Diak's question.
Diak couldn't imagine how a force could support a hundred people who never went out hunting.
As for Diak's doubt, Drogo really didn't know how to answer.
He is not good at speaking, not to mention that there are so many departments involved in this matter. Even he himself doesn't understand it very well. If you ask him to speak, it will be difficult for him to explain clearly.
Finally, I can only say one sentence...
"You'll know when you get to Prairie Village. Let's have breakfast first."
Compared to the incredible thing that more than a hundred people did not go out hunting every day and were only responsible for training and fighting, they had long known about the fact that the Da Zhou people only had two meals a day.
But after thinking about it in light of the latest news, Diac only felt it was even more incredible.
With so many people not going out hunting, they can still eat two meals a day?! Drogo didn't care what he was thinking, but greeted Diak and the others to walk towards the cafeteria.
I didn't forget to explain a little on the way.
"Oh, by the way, yesterday's feast was, on the one hand, a reward for us returning from our mission, and on the other hand, a treat for you. Our usual meals are not likely to be as sumptuous as last night's."
Hearing this, Diak felt relieved.
If the other person eats so extravagantly every meal, his mentality would probably really explode.
Soon, they arrived at the cafeteria, and at Drogo's reminder, they picked up their plates and lined up.
The line moved quickly and they arrived early, so it was soon their turn.
"What to eat?"
Faced with this question from the food chef, Diak fell into a brief daze as he looked at the large pots of food emitting tempting aromas in the food window.
At first glance, the only thing he recognized was the pancake.
"That. Pie."
The chef quickly picked up a large pancake and put it on his plate.
"What else?"
“…”
At this moment, Diak was almost completely overwhelmed by a feeling of helplessness.
My goodness, the pressure was never so great when he led his team to attack the Lizardman infantry positions before.
Seeing that Diak seemed unable to come to a conclusion, Drogo simply helped him choose.
Compared to Diack who was a little overwhelmed by this situation, Joseph who was behind was not so worried. He started with...
"I want this, this, and this! Um. Can I have one of each?!"
After hearing this, the chef was not at all vague and was not even surprised. He weighed the food on the plate with a spoon, keeping the total amount of food basically unchanged, and gave Joseph a little of each food.
Joseph brought a plate full of various dishes and walked away happily with a smile on his face, leaving the other Centaurs queuing behind him stunned.
And Diak, who had just been pulled away by Drogo, was looking at him with a dazed expression.
"Ah, why are you all looking at me? What did I do?"
“…”
